Absolutely understanding that those aboriginal treaty rights were protected and the non-derogation clause is in play, the purpose here is the belief that the area deserves much more thorough and thoughtful discussion, guided by first nations.
Again, this is compelling. It's within the bill to do that. Certainly the minister could do that, but it wouldn't necessarily be guided by the consultation and co-operation process, for example. There would also be, I believe, discussions around the potential funding that would support that study throughout these conversations.
Really, it's just about further discussing and further compelling this very important understanding that we all need to come to with regard to treaty rights and the assertion of water, specifically. It's just for more thoroughness and more thoughtfulness around this. It's certainly not meant to take away in any way, shape or form.
